Happy Birthday to Mema, Happy Birthday to me tomorrow, Happy Birthday to Mema, Happy Birthday to meeeeeeeeeeee tomorrow!!!!



Here she is - eating her cupcake - her first "sweet". She liked it and everyone had a good time watching her. She was funny.
Here's Carmen's little rocking chair, all of her guests signed it and birthday party #2 guests will also sign it (that's this Saturday).
Opening gifts, not quite sure what to do with the paper.





Aunt Lori, Austin, Haley & Carmen.






Here's Carmen w/ cousin Austin.


Aunt Tara & Carmen - love this picture!!


Anna, Alaina, Tara & Carmen. Alaina helped us keep Carmen smiling in all these pictures on Saturday!


Other misc. pictures. Drinking Vitamin D milk from the sippy - doing better with it!


Wagon ride with Daddy. I was talking to her from our deck, she was across the street. She heard my voice but was having a hard time figuring out where I was.



She found one of the lids to my water bottles (I use to run with). Funny looking huh?

Dear Carmen,

Happy 1st Birthday, today.

About this time a year ago things were pretty tense around the hospital. We were all very anxious for your safe arrival. But, as Alaina said the other day, "everything turned out great".

We hope you have a wonderful birthday week. We very much enjoyed helping you celebrate on Sat.

How blessed we are to have you.

The photos and video were great.

Love, MaMa and Papa Link

Hi, Carmen,

We have something to show you when you come to visit us next time. We have a set of twin calves born this morning. You will get a chance to see them up close, as they will still be close to the barn when you come. Both babies are black. We have other baby calves, too, but they are out in the pasture.

Love, MaMa
